It's a disaster, honey!

Watch this video from the telegraph about the problems faced by beekeepers this year.


Try to answer these questions:

1)    How many bees have been lost since last year (in percentage)?
2)    How do beekeepers explain this phenomenon (2 reasons)?
3)    How much of America’s food supply depends on honeybees for pollination (in percentage)?
4)    What would fewer bees translate into for America?
5)    Can you name some of the fruit/crops mentioned at the end of this video?
